PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: MAKE SURE the flexible antenna and bat-
tery pack are securely attached to the radio, and that the an-
tenna and battery pack are dry before attachment. Exposing
the inside of the radio to water will result in serious damage
to the radio.
DO NOT operate the radio near unshielded electrical blast-
ing caps.
DO NOT push [PTT] when you do not actually intend to
transmit.
DO NOT operate or place the radio in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
DO NOT modify the radio. The specifications may change
and then not comply with the requirements of a corresponded
regulation. The radio warranty does not cover any problems
caused by unauthorized modification.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they will damage the radio surfaces.
KEEP the transceiver from the heavy rain, and Never im-
merse it in the water. The transceiver construction is water
resistant, not waterproof.
BE CAREFUL! The radio will become hot when operating
it continuously for long periods of time.
Even when the radio power is OFF, a slight current still flows
in the circuits. Remove the battery pack or batteries from
the radio when not using it for a long time. Otherwise, the in-
stalled battery pack or batteries will become exhausted, and
will need to be recharged or replaced.
MAKE SURE to turn OFF the radio power before connect-
ing or disconnecting the supplied/optional equipment.
